(iii) If the standard free energy change for a reaction is found to be zero, what is the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction?
Siemens ozonizer: On a large scale, 03 is prepared by passing silent electric discharge through the air. Siemens’ and Halske ozone used for this purpose is shown in Figure and is known as Siemens and Halske ozonizer. It consists of about six to eight porcelain or glass cylinders, each surrounding a cylinder of aluminium fitted in a metal box. The aluminium cylinders are connected to an insulator at the bottom f the metal box and therefore, these are insulated from the box. Cold water is kept flowing into the box which after cooling the cylinders goes out. The metal box is earthed and the aluminium cylinders are raised to a potential of nearly 10,000 volts. Air is passed through the annular space between the aluminium cylinders and porcelain cylinders and is thus subjected to the action of electric discharges and comes out in the form o ozonized air as shown in diagrams. Preparation of pure ozone. In order to obtain pure ozone from ozonised oxygen, it is cooled with liquid air when ozone (b.pt. 160.6 K) condenses as a deep blue liquid while oxygen (b.pt. 90 K) remains as a gas at this temperature. Pure ozone is obtained by the fractional distillation of deep blue liquid obtained.
Pure ozone can also be obtained by passing ozonised oxygen through silica gel which adsorbs ozone, leaving behind oxygen gas. The absorbed ozone recovered by passing nitrogen or argon through the silica get.
